If this is a distro build, instead of a Mozilla one, this is likely a
result of the changes in bug 882485 (see bug 883233 for sample build
config changes). Each distro making their own build will need to acquire
a key.

Started FF with a new profile, set all in about:config to standard
values, diabled all extensions and plugins but the result remains the
same: Google maps are not visible.

Nothing we can do here. This needs to be solved by the people who
package Firefox for Ubuntu.

It is true that this bug is Ubuntu specific. After installing the actual
Firefox version from
http://download.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/ that
Firefox displays the Google geoloaction maps correctly. Please see
